http://localhost:8501 2. Get a free API key from OpenRouter.ai 3. Add your API key in the sidebar 4. Look for "✅ All Systems Ready!" status 5. Start chatting! 🎉. The mcp resume mcp server wraps that behind the Model Context Protocol, so an assistant can use it through 1 defined tool rather than through you.Setup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client.
Everything the assistant can do here goes through one of these:
Prerequisites — The Prerequisites tool exposed by this serverYou will need 2 environment variables: OPENROUTER_API_KEY, OPENAI_API_KEY. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.
Among the browser automation options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. MCP Resume's toolset — Prerequisites — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by michaelwybraniec; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
